Description

DESCRIPTION " OILLE SUSPENSION CONCENTRATE " The present invention relates to the field of formulations of preparations for protecting plants. The invention relates in particular to liquid formulations in the form of oily suspension concentrates containing herbicidal active substances of the sulfonamide group, in particular phenylsulfonamides and heteroarylsulfonamides.

In general, substances active in plant protection are not used in their pure form. Depending on the field of application and the type of application, as well as physical, chemical and biological parameters, the active substance is used with auxiliary agents and additives as active substance formulation. Combination with other active substances to increase the spectrum of action and / or to protect the cultivated plants (eg, by phyto-protectants, antidotes) is also known.

Formulations of active substances for plant protection should generally exhibit high chemical and physical stability, good applicability and ease of use and a broad biological effect with high selectivity.

Herbicidal active substances of the sulfonamide group, such as sulfonylureas, generally exhibit a high degree of chemical reactivity and tend to chemical degradation, for example by hydrolysis.

One possibility for formulating chemically labile active substances is the preparation of solid formulations. Thus, formulations of active substances of the sulfonylurea group are known in the form of powders, granulates and tablets (for example, EP 764404, WO 9313658). Processes for the preparation of solid formulations, for example in the form of granules and lengths, however, are generally expensive, in particular when low-melting active substances or auxiliary agents and additives are incorporated. In addition, solid formulations are generally difficult to apply and less easy to use.

Liquid formulations of sulfonylureas are described, for example, in US 4599412, US 4683000, US 4671817, EP 0245058, WO 01/82693, EP 0313317, EP 0514768, EP 0163598 and EP 0514769.

In US 4683000, US 4671817, EP 0245058 are described liquid formulations of novel sulfonylureas, but are not characterized with respect to their stability.

In EP 0514768, EP 0163598, EP 0514769 and JP 06 321713 A there are also described some aqueous formulations of sulfonylureas.

In US 4599412 liquid anhydrous sulfonamide formulations are disclosed in the case of emulsifiable concentrates (EC) and in WO 01/82693 it is described how the low solubility of sulfonylureas in the organic solvents of EC formulations can be increased by of dissolution promoters, such as, for example, sulfosuccinate.

Anhydrous liquid sulfonamide formulations are described in WO 01/30156, EP 0313317 and JP 0733612 A in the case of oily suspension concentrates using specific dispersing agents to keep active substances finely distributed in suspension. The object of the present invention was to provide an improved formulation for plant protection, which has a high chemical stability, as well as a high biological efficacy and a tolerance for the cultivated plants.

This object is solved by the special oily suspension concentrate of the present invention.

Accordingly, the present invention relates to an oily suspension concentrate containing a) one or more herbicidal active substances of the sulfonamide group in suspension form, b) one or more phyto-protectants, c) one or more organic solvents and ) one or more sulfosuccinates and f) as conventional auxiliaries and additives, non-ionic emulsifying surfactants and dispersing agents, selected from the group of saturated and unsaturated polyethoxylated aliphatic alcohols having 8 to 24 carbon atoms in the alkyl radical which derives from the corresponding fatty acids or petrochemicals and from 1 to 100, preferably from 2 to 50 ethylene oxide (EO) units, wherein the free hydroxy group is optionally alkoxylated; polyethoxylated arylalkylphenols, polyethoxylated alkylphenols having one or more alkyl radicals, polyethoxylated hydroxy fatty acids or glycerides containing hydroxy fatty acids, polyethoxylated sorbitan esters, and di- and tri-block copolymers; and optionally other conventional auxiliaries and additives.

In addition, the oily suspension concentrate according to the invention may optionally further contain as components: e) one or more agrochemical active substances other than a) and b).

By the term oily suspension concentrate (OD) is meant a suspension concentrate based on organic solvents. In that case, one or more active substances are suspended in the organic solvent, other active substances may be dissolved in the organic solvent.

In another embodiment, the sulfonamide a) solid, as well as the optionally used insoluble components b), e) and f) are suspended in a mixture of the organic solvent c) and sulfosuccinate d) and subjected to milling. The optionally used active substances b) and e), as well as auxiliaries and additives of f), which do not require any milling or are not required for the milling process, are added after milling.

To prepare the mixtures, conventional mixing equipment, which is optionally annealed, may be used. For pre-grinding, for example, high pressure homogenizers or stator rotor working mills, such as Ultraturax homogenizers, for example from the company IKA or toothed colloidal mills, for example from Puck . For fine grinding, for example, discontinuous pearl mills may be used, for example, from the company Drais or continuous bead mills, for example, from Bachofen. Depending on the properties of the components employed, as well as the technical requirements of the process and safety and for economic reasons, the preparation process can be adapted and optionally it is possible to dispense a pre-milling or also a fine milling.

The components a) to f) used for the preparation may contain water as the secondary component, which is present in the oily suspension concentrates according to the invention. The oily suspension concentrates according to the invention may therefore contain small amounts of water, in general, from 0 to 5% by weight. Preferably, the oily suspension concentrates according to the invention are not subjected to an additional drying process.

For the application, the oily suspension concentrates according to the invention may optionally be diluted in conventional manner, for example to form suspensions, emulsions, suspoemulsions or solutions, preferably suspensions, for example by means of water. It may be advantageous to add to the spray liquors other agrochemical active substances (for example, tank mixing participants in the form of corresponding formulations) and / or for the application, auxiliary agents and additives, for example self-emulsifying oils, such as plant oils or paraffin oils and / or fertilizers. Therefore, the object of the present invention are also herbicidal compositions based on the oily suspension concentrates according to the invention.

The herbicidal compositions according to the invention exhibit excellent herbicidal efficacy against a broad spectrum of economically important monocotyledonous weeds. Also perennial weeds of difficult combat, which sprout from rhizomes, roots or other permanent organs, are well covered. In that case, the compositions may be applied, for example, in the pre-sowing, pre-emergence or post-emergence process. Individually, there are mentioned, for example, some representatives of the mono- and dicotyledonous weed flora, which can be controlled through the herbicidal compositions according to the invention, without mention being made of a restriction to certain species.

On the side of monocotyledonous weed species are well covered, for example, Apera spica venti, Avena spp., Alopecurus spp., Brachiaria spp., Digitaria spp., Lolium spp., Echinochloa spp., Panicum spp., Phalaris spp. , Poa spp., Setaria spp. as well as Bromus spp., such as Bromus catharticus, Bromus secalinus, Bromus erectus, Bromus tectorum and Bromus japonicus and Cyperus species of the annual group and side of perennial species, Agropyron, Cynodon, Imperata, as well as Sorghum and also Cyperus species perennials.

In species of dicotyledonous weeds, the action spectrum extends to species such as, for example, Abutilon spp., Amaranthus spp., Chenopodium spp., Chrysanthemum spp., Galium spp., Such as Galium aparine, Ipomoea spp. , Kochia spp., Lamium spp., Matricaria spp.

Pharbitis spp., Polygonum spp., Sida spp., Sinapis spp., Solanum spp., Stellaria spp., Veronica spp. and Viola spp., Xanthium spp., on the annual side, as well as Convolvulus, Cirsium, Rumex and Artemisia on perennial weeds.

Among the specific weed culture conditions found in rice, such as, for example, Echinochloa, Sagittaria, Alisma, Eleocharis, Scirpus and Cyperus, are also very well combated by the compositions according to the invention.

If the herbicidal compositions according to the invention are applied to the soil surface prior to germination, then either the emergence of the weed changes is completely prevented or the weeds grow to the germinating stage of the leaf, however, they then adjust their and finally die completely after three to four weeks.

In applying the herbicidal compositions according to the invention to the green parts of the plants in the post-emergence process, there is also a drastic stoppage of the growth very quickly after the treatment and the weed plants stop at the present stage of growth of the application or die completely after a certain period of time, so that in this way a competition of weeds harmful to the control plants is removed in a very early and permanent way.

The herbicidal compositions according to the invention stand out by a herbicidal effect which starts rapidly and is long lasting. The resistance of the active substances to the rain in the combinations according to the invention is generally favorable. As a particular advantage it is believed that the effective and used dosages in the herbicidal compositions of herbicidal compounds can be adjusted so low that their effect on the soil is optimally low. In this way, their use is not only possible in sensitive crops, but the contamination of the water table is practically avoided. By combining according to the invention active substances, a considerable reduction of the required amount of application of the active substances is possible.

The aforementioned properties and advantages are useful in the practical control of weeds, in order to keep agricultural crops free from undesirable competition plants and thereby to guarantee and / or increase yields qualitatively and quantitatively. The technical standard is clearly overcome by these novel compositions with respect to the described properties.

While the herbicidal compositions according to the invention exhibit excellent herbicidal activity against mono- and dicotyledon weeds, economically-grown plants, for example crops with two germinated leaves, such as soybeans, cottonseed, rapeseed, beetroot or grass crops, such as wheat, barley, rye, oats, millet, rice or corn, are very little or no harms. For these reasons, the present compounds are very well suited for selectively combating unwanted plant growth on useful agricultural crops or on ornamental plantations.

In addition, the herbicidal compositions according to the invention exhibit growth regulating properties in cultivated plants. These penetrate by regulating the plant's own metabolism and thus the compositions may be used for the specific influence of plant constituents and to facilitate harvesting, such as, for example, causing dissection and atrophy of growth. Furthermore, these are also suitable for the general control and inhibition of undesirable vegetative growth, without thereby killing the plants. Inhibition of vegetative growth plays an important role in many mono- and dicotyledonous cultures, because by this means, storage can be reduced or completely avoided.

By virtue of the herbicidal and plant growth regulating properties, the herbicidal compositions according to the invention can also be used to combat weeds in known plant or genetically modified plant crops to be further developed. Transgenic plants are generally distinguished by particular advantageous properties, for example, by resistance against certain pesticides, in particular herbicides, resistance against plant diseases or pathogens of plant diseases, such as certain insects or microorganisms such as fungi , bacteria or viruses. Other particular properties relate, for example, to the material harvested with respect to quantity, quality, storage capacity, composition and special constituents. Thus, transgenic plants are known to have an increased starch content or modified starch quality or those with different fatty acid composition of the harvested material. The application of the compositions according to the invention is preferred in transgenic crops of economically important useful ornamental plants, for example crops of grasses such as wheat, barley, rye, oats, millet, rice and maize or also beet crops , cotton, soybean, rapeseed, potato, tomato, pea and other varieties of vegetables. Preferably, the compositions according to the invention may be used as herbicides in useful plant crops, which are resistant against phytotoxic effects or have been rendered genetically resistant.

In applying the herbicidal compositions according to the invention in transgenic crops, in addition to the effects against weeds to be observed in other crops, effects often occur, which are specific for application in the respective transgenic crop, for example a weed spectrum modified or especially enlarged, can be combated, modified application quantities, which can be used for the application, preferably good combining ability with the herbicides, against which the transgenic crop is resistant, as well as the influence of the growth and yield of the transgenic culture plants. The object of the present invention is furthermore a process for combating the growth of undesirable plants, preferably in crops of plants such as cereals (eg wheat, barley, rye, oats, rice, maize, millet), beet , sugarcane, rape, cotton and soybeans, particularly preferably in monocotyledonous crops such as cereals, for example wheat, barley, rye, oats, crosses thereof, such as triticale, rice, maize and millet, one or more herbicidal compositions according to the invention being applied to the weeds, parts of the plant, seed of the plant or the area in which the plants grow, for example, in the planted area.

Plant cultures may also be genetically modified or be obtained by mutation selection and are preferably tolerant against acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibitors. The oily suspension concentrate of the present invention exhibits excellent chemical stability during preparation and storage and is also particularly suitable for combinations of active substances with different physicochemical properties, for example of a herbicidal phenylsulfonamide poorly soluble in organic solvents with a protective soluble and optionally other soluble agrochemical active substances. In addition, the oily suspension concentrate exhibits excellent physical stability, good applicationability and ease of application, as well as high efficacy and biological selectivity.

If not otherwise described, the oily suspension concentrates mentioned in the following examples were prepared as follows: a premix was prepared in which the sulfosuccinate d) was dissolved in solvent c) and to that solution were the other auxiliaries and additives f). Thereafter, the protector b) was dissolved in the premix. Upon completion of the dissolution process, the solid a) sulfonamide was suspended in the mixture. The coarse suspension, after pre-grinding, was finely milled.
